Just plain bolts, nuts, spacers and springs mounting should work nicely.

I'm just using the plastic pushpins. Been too lazy to find some screws, washers, and nuts that will fit.

Yep just using the plastic push pins here.... Must admit they do appear to be inadequate for such a hi end NB cooler. My hr-05 will move all over the place at the slightest touch, maybe tougher springs would work. Same cant b bothered to go find all the screws/washers etc needed to mod it. Appears to keep NB temps alot cooler than the stock n very noisy HS on my evga680i.....

ACE HARDWARE. Has 6-32 nuts, and bolts of all lengths. They usually carry a good selection of compression springs. If by chance 6-32's are too fat for the holes just drop down to a 4-40. Very standard stuff. :toast:
